Hi Dan

Bought a business that has cameras from 2013/2014 and wanted to add an NVR. Which one do you recommend DS-7616NI-I2/16P Or DS-7616NI-K2/16P?

Thanks

Hi Dan,

Just reaching out for a little advice please. To your knowledge what's the differences between DS-2CDB26FWD-IZS and the DS-2CDA26FWD-IZS? Furthermore, would the firmware that supports the ANPR function possibly work with the B variant?

Any guidance would be most appreciated.

Kind regards

Karl

Hi @Karloslejackel

The 4B26 is purely a Darkfighter Bullet and the 4A26 is a Darkfighter bullet with support for ANPR software.

If you are looking to purchase a new camera for ANPR then we wouldn't recommend the 4A26/P because this model has now been replaced by the DS-2CD7A26G0/P-IZS 2MP ANPR Bullet Camera

Hi Dan,
Thank you for your response. Ok to be honest I’m just experimenting an have no budget for the latest camera types. Just thought that it may have been possible to flash the B variant with the ANPR for an A. Don’t suppose it’s been attempted? One thing is I possible to download the firmware from a camera?
Regards

As far as we are aware the 4B26 does not support the ANPR firmware, the ANPR software is only supported by the 4A26 model.

I am not sure what you mean by 'download firmware from a camera', if you mean can you download/copy firmware from a camera then no, but if you mean can you downgrade the firmware to an older version then yes you should be able to install the older version to downgrade.

Hey @Dan

I hope you don't mind me joining your forum and looking for some advice. I am really at a loss at the moment and becoming stressed out with this system.

We have had a number of crime-related things happen and each time we go to view the footage something is wrong with it etc.

Thank you.

Hi Jami, I read in a post you may be able to help with using isapi. I have little to no knowledge on this subject despite being computer savvy.

long story short I need to implement the code from section 8.4.52 of this document to get a overlay of the camera voltage onto the osd.

HIKVISION ISAPI

can you help?

No, I don't know that person. I think that I sent an email first to support.eu@hikvision.com and I guess then they forwarded my email to Hikvision China. I got the password reset file from that person.

Try the forum at ipcamtalk.com with your question (volts on display). There are a couple of members on there that will know how to do what you're trying to achieve - alastairstevenson seems to be the man on there who knows the firmware inside out.

Hello there, could you have a look in here please?

Engage \ Disengage alarm in hikvision

Hi I just received my Hikvision NVR + 2 Hikvision cameras. I have only one problem: I set up motion detection for specific times that will trigger alarm output to an external siren. The thing is that there are some days that I am staying home so i don't want the alarm to work. I could not find...

Hey JB, you helped me a few weeks ago with a number of queries and I’ve just spotted you’ve got both 2346 and 2386 cameras. I’ve got a set of 2346s abs wanted to get your views on the 2386s in comparison both during day and at night?

Great in daytime. Fairly similar in low light - the 2386 has the same specified minimum illumination as the 2346, so nothing spoiling in IQ when compared to the 2346. Think we're a way off being able to exploit the 8mp in night mode. I've had some issues with frame drop that Hikvision couldn't sort as have others - only affects daytime viewing.

I saw your helpful awnser to a CCTV question so I'm taking the liberty of asking you a question because I don't want to just jump into someone elses post.I'm considering installing CCTV and would like to know if there are any "discreet" cameras on the market because where I live a public camera would look ostentaisous.

Hi Malford,

Just looking at an oldish post of yours, I see you had an ASUS RT-AC87U, that’s what I use. Did you find using DDNS on the actual router was better than using the Hik one?

Fairly new to the game and looking to setup remote connection and apps on my iPhone etc, either Hik-Connect or iVMS 4500.

What did you find best?

No worries - Thanks for the reply. I’ve gone with Hik-Connect currently, so not needed to setup DDNS. Do you find the iVMS or Hik-Connect app better?

I’ve had to turn on port forwarding this week as I’m away on holiday also and getting a few false alerts from intrusion detection so tweaking the sensitivity. Albeit not keen on leaving ports open!

iVMS is definitely faster using the ASUS DNS service.
I did have to change the port 8000 as I was getting Attempted illegal logins from multiple IPs every second

Believe it’s just port 80 I have opened. How do you know if your getting illegal logins? Does it kick out alerts on the NVR

Hi,

Are you able to confirm if the ColorVu light can be triggered to come on via a smart event, eg Intrusion Detection?

Thank you

Hi @Reecek

Apologies, I do not always get notified of messages left here so it is always best to just post your questions straight to the forum as someone else would have likely answered this before now.

ColorVu light operates the same way as the IR lights, so when it is dark enough the ColorVu lights will come on but there is no way to set these to be triggered by smart events. The lights can either be on full power, dimmed, or off completely. (if you already have streetlights/floodlights covering the scene)
